Soda alternative Poppi is facing a class-action lawsuit over false advertising claims. Consumers allege that Poppi's prebiotic sodas do not provide the promised health benefits and may even harm gut health due to their high sugar content. The lawsuit, filed on May 30, 2024, claims that to see any prebiotic benefit, one would need to drink four cans of Poppi per day, which could cause other health issues such as inflammation and liver damage. Poppi, known for its viral marketing, is accused of misrepresenting the beverage’s gut-health benefits.
